Norwegian Recipes: Cooking The Scandinavian Dish

From sweet treats like berries, waffles, and ciders, to cured meats and some of the world's best cheeses. And don't forget the fresh seafood: king crab, salmon, and the famous Atlantic cod. Enjoy the new and traditional flavors of Norway! The hunger for traditional Norwegian food has unusual good preconditions in this wildly varied country with one of the world’s longest coastlines. Norway is known for wild nature, lots of space, and deep fjords with cold, clean water. Perhaps unsurprisingly, catching and preparing top-quality fish has always been a big part of Norwegian culture. For ages past, dried cod was the big export – now it is fresh salmon and arctic cod.

Traditional Norwegian cuisine is largely based on the meats, vegetables, and fruits available most readily on the coastlines of Norway, and in its wilderness areas and mountains. Chefs in the country use more fish and game than those used by others in Europe. They also count on using preserved ingredients, since they have very long winters.
